This graph sums it up. In acute stroke with tandem lesions (ICA + intracranial occlusion), acute carotid stenting during EVT was associated with better 90-day outcomes than EVT without stenting. Outcomes were similar with or without prior IV thrombolysis (IVT). Caveat: secondary (post-hoc) IPD meta-analysis of 6 RCTs - stenting wasn’t randomized, so results are associative, not causal.
